Defending €10,300 Championship winner "Phil Ejri" checked from middle position to his opponent "Cashflow" in the cutoff. "Cashflow" then bet 80,000 into a pot of 100,000.
"Phil Ejri" spent some time in the tank before slamming in his stack of 171,000, quickly being called by "Cashflow".
"Phil Ejri": Q♥Q♣4♥2♦ 
"Cashflow": A♥A♦J♦10♦
"Phil Ejri" had "Cashflow" dominated with top set and a higher flush draw. The 5♠ river changed nothing, seeing "Phil Ejri" double up as he is looking for more Grand Slam success.

Small blind Wendelin Jall, big blind "Slickwin", and Fahredin Mustafov on the button went to a turn of 6♥A♦K♥9♠. Jall checked to "Slickwin", who fired 75,000 into the pot of 155,000.
Mustafov stuck in a call for around half his stack, as did Jall for the majority of his. The 10♣ river then checked to Mustafov, who shipped in his remaining 76,000.
Jall let go of his cards, only leaving himself with 11 big blinds, while "Slickwin" asked how much was in the pot before calling off.
Mustafov tabled Q♥J♣10♥7♥ for the rivered straight. "Slickwin" frustratedly showed A♥K♦Q♦8♥ as he paid Mustafov what he was owed.

Matthew Macioce had squeezed in a three-bet to 44,000 from the small blind, which only Vlado Banicevic in the cutoff called. Macioce continued for 25,000 on the 5♣10♦5♠ flop and received a call.
He then shoved in his stack of 78,000 on the 4♣ turn, receiving a quick fold and chipping him back up to above a starting stack.

Andreas Zampas and Bernd Gleissner had created a pot of 68,000 when Gleissner made a pot-sized bet on the 3♠6♦Q♠ flop, leaving around the same amount behind.
Zampas then put him all-in and Gleissner called after pondering for a little bit.
Bernd Gleissner: A♥A♣J♦10♣
Andreas Zampas: K♦7♦6♥5♥
Zampas was behind but hit two pair on the 5♠ turn to take the lead. The J♠ river did not improve Gleissner's aces, resulting in his exit.

In the 875th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which has been nominated for 'Podcast of the Year' at the Global Poker Awards, Chad Holloway, Kyna England, and Mike Holtz dive into the wild story of a Supreme Court attorney who is in hot water over poker taxes. What makes the tale of Tom Goldstein so interesting is that the sums he played for were astronomical with him having reportedly won $50 million only to lose it all plus another $14 million.
While his name might not be familiar to the poker masses, you may have either heard about or seen him before as he was written about in The Setup, which was written by his friend Dan Bilzerian, and he also appeared on the Hustler Casino Live (HCL) $1,000,000 Cash Game last year as the mysterious, masked "Thomas" where he mucked the winning hand at showdown in a pot worth $540,000!
The crew then chat about Leon Tsoukernik awakening from a 40-hour coma after a Propofol overdose, with his future very much up in the air. They also get into a bad poker promotion that almost ran at a Las Vegas casino on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, highlight the upcoming 2025 Leaf Metal Poker trading card set, and discuss popular ARIA dealer Clyde “Snack Attack” Gaskins appearing on Netflix's Queer Eye.
Finally, they wrap things up by recapping some big winners including Pamela Belote setting the new women's record for most WSOP Circuit rings, Martins Adeniya taking down the 2025 Lucky Hearts Poker Open Championship, and Andrew Lichtenberger defeating Nick Schulman in the latest PGT event.
A new PokerNews Podcast will drop weekly every Friday at 8a PT / 11a ET / 4p UK time. Remember to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you do not miss an episode!
